Little Book of Spitfire

Little Book of Spitfire is a 128-page book fully illustrated with photographs written by David Curnock. In the history of the airplane there is one aircraft that is fully deserving of the accolade "legendary" - the Supermarine Spitfire. Against overwhelming odds in the Battle of Britain, and taking part in major actions in every operational theater in World War II, the Spitfire became a symbol of victory. Built in greater numbers than any other aircraft of the time, examples of this icon of British aviation achievement are still flying today, paying tribute to her designer and makers, and in honor of those who flew and maintained her in those dark days.
